Fortunately I've never had any trouble with the Walgreen's rebates, but I've only been doing them for a few months. I have only used coupons for the ones that offer partial rebates where there wouldn't be a rebate that gave me back more money that I actually paid so I can't really offer help there, but one thing I do like about their system is that you can track your rebate on their website.

Also, my tip is to wait until the end of the month and check the weekly circular for sales on the rebate items. You can only turn in one form a month, and they will sometimes offer a very good sales during the last week of the month on a partial rebate item that I also have a coupon for, so I will be able to get the item at a significant, as opposed to buying it a full cost earlier in the month and only receiving a much smaller discount.

About the supplies of rebate items. When I first went to get some of the rebate items, they were out of stock and I spoke to some employees that told me they restock (at our store) every Thursday, so if they are out one week, I will come back on the day that they restock and try to catch them that week. Good luck! If it is a free after rebate item, I think it's worth it to stop in earlier in the month and try back again if they are out of the item.

Overall, they seem like one of the more reliable companies.
